Can Cousins Ever Be Like Siblings?
As a child, I remember thinking of my cousins as my siblings. That was obvious being a only child, I was always lonely. But they seemed to be very clear that I was their cousin and not a sibling. The bonding that exists between siblings cannot be replicated in anyway. Even if you are close to your cousins, can cousins ever be like siblings?
That is a really tough question to answer. Cousins can be best friends. You can have a very close relationship with your cousins but at some point in time you realize that they are not your siblings after all. Usually, it is common for a single child to look for a sibling among cousins or consider them to your own brothers and sisters. But the feeling is rarely reciprocated.
HOW FRIENDS INFLUENCE YOUR LIFE
Here are some points at which you wonder if cousins can be like siblings after all.
Sharing
Responsibility
Cousins
are
usually
people
with
whom
you
share
grandparents
but
not
parents.
So
they
have
the
responsibility
of
their
own
parents
to
take
care
of.
You
have
to
take
responsibility
for
your
own
parents.
When
it
comes
to
sharing
the
responsibility
for
your
ageing
parents,
your
cousins
would
not
be
the
ones
to
help
you.
Conflict
Of
Interest
Conflict
of
interest
is
something
exists
in
every
family.
Usually,
conflict
of
interest
happens
regarding
property
and
other
sources
of
wealth
in
a
family.
Conflict
of
interest
can
cause
problems
between
siblings
as
well.
However,
usually
it
is
cousins
who
are
at
loggerheads
over
conflict
of
family
interests.
Parental
Influence
If
your
parents
and
your
cousins
parents
have
problems
to
each
other
it
is
bound
to
affect
the
relationship
you
and
your
cousins
share.
If
your
parents
do
not
get
along,
it
is
hard
to
outgrow
parental
influence
when
it
comes
to
your
cousins.
However,
parents
rarely
influence
siblings
against
each
other.
So
your
relationship
with
your
cousins
and
siblings
can
never
be
on
the
same
level.
Making
A
Choice
When
it
comes
to
a
point
when
a
choice
has
to
be
made
between
your
wedding
and
his
foreign
trip,
which
one
would
your
cousin
choose?
The
fact
of
life
is
that
cousins
are
usually
more
in
number
than
siblings
and
people
rarely
sacrifice
their
own
plans
for
a
cousin's
wedding
or
engagement.
However,
since
we
all
have
but
one
or
two
siblings,
the
weddings
or
even
engagement
of
a
sibling
is
much
more
important
to
us.
Can a cousin be like your sibling? Yes, it is possible if you have had a childhood of shared memories and time. However, this relationship has to be nurtured lifelong and depends on many factors.
